Memorial Day Fun!

Had a super fun time on memorial day. We all hung out, went fishing, swam at the pool & played Yard games. There was not fighting during the yard games, but a little bit of wrestling! Okay, a lot of wrestling. The boys LOVE to wrestle with anyone they can tackle. Poor Jacy!
Kelcey during the Bouce game.

Jacy & her fav. friend - Tina. Tina is crazy!

Kelcey hadn't seen Chris all week & was excited to have him over for smores & yard games. She even ran to the car to give him a big hug. We just roll our eyes!

TINA!
Jacy wrestling with the boys. She usually wins the wrestling - but that didn't happen on this day. The boys were usually sitting on her face! Here she is happy! But, it didn't last.
Steve - finally home from work to hang out with the family.

Building up the fire for smores. Burning all the clippings from Spring cleanup.

Look how happy she is - Chris is back in town!

Another gorgeous sunset.

Perfect smores cooking fire!

Jacy! What a cutie pie!
Okay, this was crazy! We went to the creek at the end of our street & saw a TON of carp (YUCKY!) just all over the creek. They are so GROSS! Anyway, I told Jacy if she were to catch a carp & toss it up on the shore I would pay her a hundred dollars! She took me up on the offer & went down into the creek to try to catch a fish. The fish she is holding is NOT one she caught. It was on the shore and was slowly dying. Ughh!!! I couldn't believe she even picked up the beast! She didn't catch one, but we sure had fun watching her trying to get a carp!
Trent trying to get his hook out of his shirt. He tried to hook the carps & missed it flinging water, goop & the hook at himself. It was very funny.
Trent trying to catch a carp (we think they were in a breeding frenzy!) Hee Hee! They were not interested in Trent's bait.
Trevor just hanging!

Jacy still trying to figure out how to catch a carp!
The girls went with Chris on Mon. afternoon to spear some more carp. Chris killed two more & Jacy has a picture of Chris with the carp on his spear! Ughh!! Yuck!!!
Cannot believe how UGLY that fish is!! Cannot believe that Jacy would even touch it, let alone lift it up for a camera shot!
Trent fishing!
Smore time! Yummy!
A little crispy critter! But, still delicious!
Mr. Fire Maniac!
Look at the yummy smore all over his face! He LOVES smores!
A beautiful night for smores!
Fishing at the pier.
Steve teaching Jacy how to tie her hook on the fishing line.
What a patient dad!
What a crazy whirlwind weekend. Now -I am sick!!! Sinus infection!! Not fun! We missed being with extended family & visiting the graves. We are also very excited to see everyone in a couple of weeks!!!!!

Sounds like you're having some beautiful weather! I miss the old Surf N Slide. There's not really anywhere to swim over here, SAD!. My kids don't get out until the 19 of June. Kinda nice though.

Wow! We are going to have to take the boys down there and see if they can see any fish. They would LOVE that! I meant to tell you on Sunday, I saw all your Hawaii pictures and loved them all, it looks like you guys had a lot of fun. I have just been slacking on the comment department with blogging and blogging in general since we have been so busy! Has Kelcey decided on a school yet? Catch ya later!
